Hard Drive Price and Capacity

[matrix86]

I just purchased a 1T WD Caviar Black 7200rpm HDD. I hope it's as good as everyone is saying it is. The only thing i'm worried about is the shipping. Newegg may have the best prices around, but their packaging is a nightmare. Apparently, i'll get my hard drive wrapped up in a anit-static bag surrounded by bubble wrap, all in a box that could fit 10 or more hard drives. So i'm a little worried about it's trip here, lol.

Can you give some feed back on how you have found the 1T WD Caviar Black 7200rpm HDD,looking at buying one.thanks.

[Badassmoafo]

Dude i dont need to know where to get it from,i just wanted a personal review on one from you seen as you bought it 6 month before now.

im going to buy a 500gb harddrive with a 7200 rpm is that good i mean is it fast. the brand is OEM

[jonnierekkisvalur]

I doubt that the brand is OEM. OEM means that you can only buy it as a part of a whole system.

[Chrijz]

Hitachi, Samsung and WD are good harddrive-brands. I turn on full AAM (Automatic Acoustic Management, a technology to reduce hard drive seek noise), although it makes them go a bit slower.

[thefsxflyer]

Sweet! I just bought a 7200RPM 320Gig Hitachi and I currently have a 250Gig samsung 7200RPM

[Chrijz]

WD GP is probably the most reliable HDD.

Western Digital FTW

[AJenbo]

Noise is also a big factor i think i got a 10000 rpm disk and it can some times make a racket.

[Kaleb34]

true ture. Still fast. totally worth it. Western digital is great company.

well the only bonus to anything faster than 5400rpm is loading speed of programs ;)
